Apathy

[tehlils]

I don't know what to do about RP right now. I haven't been active at all in either of my games, and I'm not feeling any urge to be aside from knowing that I should be. I don't like character sitting, and feel like I should drop. But I don't want to because I feel like I'd be letting everyone down

*HUGS* hey you're listening to a great tune, at least.

Lils, it sounds like you're depressed. I mean clinically. Apathy and inability to keep your attention on things you love are definitely warning signs.

[tehlils]

Of course. :D *hugs* Nothing like great music to play in the background.

Yeah, but I shouldn't be. The meds I'm on are supposed to prevent that. I'm on Amitriptyline and Lamictal - an anti-depressant and a mood stabilizer.

[centeroffate]

Yeah, but sometimes over time meds lose their effectiveness. You should look into getting on a newer antidepressant, amitriptyline is well known for losing its effectiveness over time.

The amitriptyline was prescribed for me for my chronic pain condition with added benefit of it being an anti-depressant and helping reduce the number of migraines I'd been having. Prior to it, I was getting 2-3 migraines a week, now it's 2-3 a month. But, yeah, an additional med might be necessary.

loooove your icon

and bb it's really ok. Everyone gets like this...maybe what you need is an extended vacation, yeah? I totally understand the feeling. And if during the vacation you decide it's just not where you're at anymore...I doubt anyone will judge you ♥ You'll find a niche.

Thanks. :3 You are welcome to snag if you like. I'll be posting it with my batch of icons from shoujo_battle & vgames_lims within the next few days.

Yeah. I'm about to send in my hiatus notices. I don't want to character sit, so I'll tell them they're welcome to allow someone else the character if they want it. ♥

Hiatus and take some time. You sound like you have depression. You shouldn't have to worry about RP right now. We'll all still be around if and when you want to come back. ♥

[tehlils]

Yeah, I totally do. ♥
